Is it real?

Just trying to work things out in my head about what's happening in my little part of the world.

@itbbe if it's causing any distress in your life - which it sounds like it is, then I strongly recommend that you ask for some help. I don't know your circumstances, but there are usually hotlines of some sort for mental health issues in each country, you can start by calling them. If you have a doctor, contact them. The main thing is to reach out for help. People like drs will know what help is available in your area.

I'm sorry you're going through this.

Please take care and reach out.

great video..i struggled with several destructive behaviors; started very early at 3 and it just took off from there...everything from self injury to drugs to dissociation. I tend to struggle a great deal.

Hi Skittles,

I hope you're in a safer place now and getting any help you need...

Take care,

Every once in a while, I come back to watch your videos. I was diagnosed in March of this year...and sometimes, even though we know we are real...we start to question if we are really real or if we just make it up as we go along. It's weird...we couldn't make this up...but we still wonder.

Our therapist says that it is normal for parts to question. It is a way to deny it and if it isn't real then maybe none of the bad stuff was either.

Your videos help validate my pain!!

Thank you.....<3

Hi Elysium,

I'm really glad my clips help in some way, but also sad that this is what others experience too.

I think it's normal to question what is happening... Some of that questioning is healthy, some of it can be very negative and harmful.

I hope you're getting some good, positive help.

Take care,

Sophie :)

castorgirl, you have some great videos , although we havent obviously met... its soooo comforting to know... someone else out there gets it

Being a multiple myself, I think I can answer the question.

Every alter has a purpose.

When we become burdened with more than we can bear, we break off. Each of us alters gets one or a few troubles or personality flaws which we are to conquer. This way, no one has to deal with the whole thing. We also have helper alters. Guides, teachers, protectors, stress relievers. Some do a wonderful job of doing their duty. Some never learn to. It's all about being a family and helping each other.

in our body there is an incredibly optomistic and ever-happy child (he is the one who made our youtube account and loves it)

there is me, i'm the wisdom... i can figure anything out with little effort, i also act as the leader of the alters in our body

then there is the true one who is very depressed and has tried to kill himself many times... but i take over and keep us alive...

then the 4th is pretty much the incarnation of evil... hates me more than anything, along with everyone else
